All in one miracle cream!

Advantages: many products in 1, saves money, rubs in easily
Disadvantages: expensive on the high street

...MIRACLE CREAM I started using the Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream because of all the fantastic reviews it had, and I must say it fulfilled all of the expectations I had plus more. It truly is a miracle cream and is affordable. Being the well known brand of Elizabeth Arden you can find it in most department stores and high street stores such as Boots however I would recommend buying it online as you will find it?s a lot cheaper. On the CheapSmells website you can buy a 50ml tube for £11.90, I have seen it not online for prices in excess of £20 so you are definitely better off buying online. You can get the 8 hour face cream in sizes 30ml and 50ml. You can also get the miracle hand cream in 75ml. The cream itself is mainly used as a skin protectant and can help with problems such as dry, flaky skin. But the miracle with this cream is that...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

Elemis S.O.S. Skin Emergency Cream

Advantages: Nice smell and packaging.
Disadvantages: Feels quite heavy on skin and does not obsorb easily.

...I use a big range of Elemis skin care products and have found them to be brilliant. My skin is smoother and clearer than it ever has been. I have been using Elemis for nearly two years and just love it. However, the S.O.S. cream is one of the few products from their range that I feel does not live up to what it says. The product claims to soothe and balance sensitive skin, it is to be applied to areas of high colour and to irritated parts of the face and decollete. I would be prone to redness and at times sensitivity so I thought the cream would be perfect for me, but unfortunately not. I have used almost all of the product and will continue to until it is finished, only because it was quite expensive. Elemis S.O.S. made no difference what so ever to my skin apart from making it feel quite sticky as it takes a long time to...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

Eight Hour Miracle Cream!

Advantages: Heals and Soothes skin.
Disadvantages: Price, can take a while to absorb.

...Before I bought Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream I had read about it in magazines with lots of Celebrities citing it as one of there "Must have" beauty products. As ever my inquisitive nature took over and I decided to invest in a tube to find out what I have been missing. So of I went to my local Debenhams and asked the Beauty Advisor for a tube of this recommended cream. The Cream cost me £18 for a 50ml tube. I know this is also available at other department stores so it may be possible to buy this cheaper. The eight hour cream comes in an off white box with the Elizabeth Arden logo on the front. The actual tube is white in colour with black writing across the front and a screw top lid. Eight Hour Cream was developed by Elizabeth Arden over 70 years ago. Its intended use is to sooth minor skin irritations and calm chapping...

Let's call it a custard cream

Advantages: Taste of white chocolate and vanilla; lovely and sweet
Disadvantages: A part from the unhealthy side not alot really; perhaps thicker filling

...gift tagged shaped box 'Fox's written in the colours of brown (for the 'F'); red (for the 'O'); purple ('X') and yellow ('S'). The word 'creams' is written in a fancy white-ish scrawl on a blue backgrounded strip. Beneath the product picture is writen 'rich tea with real vanilla cream'. I've never tried rich tea bikkies but if you have, you'll understand the flavour of the biscuit I was trying to describe. You can get variations on the actual biscuit that holds the cream together. For exmaple: * 'Nice creams' if you prefer 'Nice' (pronounced as 'neice') bikkies; *malted milk creams *Jam creams (jammy dodgers basically) For a 200g pack you'll pay around 88p. Not bad, but I'd rather buy a 400g pack of Asda or Tesco Smart Price Custard creams. The only reasons being that you get more in a pack. The biscuits aren't as sweet...

Review of Fox´s Rich Tea Creams

SOS Emergency Cream

Advantages: lasts ages
Disadvantages: smells strong and very expensive

...Last year I turned 30 and treated myself to a stay at Springs Health Farm and opted for a couple of extra treatments. One of these was a Japanese Silk Booster Facial which cost me a whopping £64 (yes really) using all Elemis products and when it was finished my skin felt really wonderful. The therapist then wrote me out a 'prescription' for the products she recommended for my skin. If I'd bought them all they would have come to a incredible £168 and there was no way I was spending that sort of money so I thought I'd treat myself to one product only. I decided on the S.O.S Emergency Cream as this is a more specialised product and I thought that I could use my ordinary cleansers and moisturisers and use this as a top-up when needed. It cost me £26 which is very expensive but at the time I thought it must be worth it. The product comes...

Eight Hour Cream

Advantages: Only need to use a tiny amount so lasts for years!
Disadvantages: None

...This cream comes in a tube and initially seems quite expensive (when I bought my last tube it cost £17). It states that it is for use on chapped or weather burned skin ? basically for use anywhere on the body. It is a brilliant lip salve ? it may seem expensive but I can?t remember the last time I bought a tube ? it must be at least 2 years ago. The cream never goes off and lasts for ages as you only need to use the tiniest amount each time. Another thing it is very good for is when you have a sore red nose during a cold. It soothes and fixes dry skin extremely quickly and in my mind is great value for money....

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

8hr cream that really sinks in

Advantages: easily absorbed, noticed a difference straight away moisturizing for 8 hrs
Disadvantages: bit pricey depending on where you buy from

...Elizabeth Arden eight hour cream ?intensive body moisturizing treatment. Smooth over body daily? What does it do? The claims of this body cream are to leave the skin soft and luxurious for 8 hours long. They say that it absorbs quickly and deeply giving a very intense moisture saturation. Especially good for and reverses the appearance of dry flaky skin. This cream has won THE BEAUTY INSIDERS AWARDS verdict The 1.7 oz tube that I have is not really that big, and for the amount I used on my dry legs and arms its not going to last that long. On opening the tube I found that the cream is actually very thick, nice though and soothing when rubbing it into my skin. It had a pleasant scent to it but I couldn?t quite put my finger on what it was, maybe citrus lemon. The cream sunk into my skin immediately, and because I...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

8 Hour Cream - Unisex ... Really?????

Advantages: It accentuates facial features you know!
Disadvantages: Cost and maybe the smell.

...Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream - 50ml - circa £25 - typically from department stores such as Debenhams and the likes. I bought mine from duty free at East Midlands Airport, costing me £16.49 and the young lady providing me assistance wrongly assumed it was for my girlfriend!! Brownie points were quite evidently beamed in my direction as the young lady serving me thought ? "what a nice young gentleman, thinking of his girlfriend and buying her a present on the outbound journey". Actually, she was probably thinking about knocking off and getting down the pub with her mates, but that's inconsequential. Yes it's make-up, yes I am male, yes I use it, and yes I am heterosexual. I will probably get no end of abuse for this review, especially if any of my male friends saw it ... barring 2 male friends who know I use it and have already...

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream - Soothing Medicine for s

Advantages: Great for restoring dry chapped hands to their former glory
Disadvantages: Slightly medicated smell and a tiny bit greasy if too much is used.

...I have decided to review the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream Concentrated which comes in a squeezy bottle. Price The norwegian formula hand cream was bought from asda for £2.77 for 75ml. The price may vary from store to store so please bare this in mind. Container The container is a squeezy type bottle which is flat at the top abit like the toothpaste type containers. It has a screw on lid. The container is mostly white with blue and red as the only other colours. There is a flag type logo which is blue and white and makes the product brand more recognisable. Information on the container The product basically tells you that it is hand cream which is in a concentrated version so that just a dab is needed to relieve dry chapped hands. It is also dermatologist tested. On the back of the container it gives...

Review of Neutrogena Hand Cream (Unscented)

The cream of the creams

Advantages: Mellow, rich and unique in a stylish distinct bottle
Disadvantages: Perhaps more pricey than some sherries

...Harveys Bristol Cream is the world?s best selling sherry. Harveys has produced fine Spanish sherry from the Jerez region of Spain since 1796. Harveys Bristol Cream stands out from other sherries in taste and quality. Harveys Bristol Cream is a blend of three sherry types ? Fino, Amontillado and Oloroso, all created from the Palomino grape ? that are then sweetened with Pedro Ximénez wine. Each adds a unique flavor and textural element to the final blend. The final blend is a closely guarded company secret. Harveys Bristol Cream sweetness is ultimately adjusted to 13.8 - 14.2% by the addition of wine created from the sun-dried Pedro Ximénez, which adds a creamy, raisiny richness. The Bristol Blue bottle was introduced in 1996 to mark Harveys 200th anniversary. Bristol, besides being an important seaport, had become one of Britain?s...
